happy mother's day!

I had a lovely Mother's Day full of homemade cards and presents and lovely children and their daddy . . .
and this breakfast in bread, made entirely by Faith and Dieter! Faith even made the coffee (I walked her through it the night before, in anticipation--the mother's day breakfast in bed is not a big secret).



a box of "local" chocolates . . .
and later in the afternoon, Jolly Kone! Ack! Look at all that fried food and the little boys lunging toward it. The fried zucchini is my favorite. Don't worry--we only do this once a year on Mother's Day.

Everyone was there except Jacob, who called me from college.

Followed by a nice opportunity to sew in my studio and preceded by a walk to Farmer's Market with my littlest (who is feeling so much better now, he is like a different child), it was such a nice day. Happy Mother's Day to all of you, too!

It looks like you had a wonderful Mother's Day. I'm so glad Rainer is feeling more like himself. :)

Oh it is just so nice to hear about Rainer feeling a bit better. Happy Mother's Day to you!

What a lovely day! That fried food made my mouth water. My husband brought me Starbucks for breakfast, mmmmm. I got a new pillow instead of chocolate. I think perhaps it was the best gift ever.
